VSC7331
10G Multi-Protocol Multi-Rate Metro Data Services Media Access Controller (MAC)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The VSC7331VH is an essential component
enabling cost-effective, new-generation,
metropolitan network markets
Business Continuance Networks
Terrestrial Broadcast Networks
Metro Virtual Private Networks
When used with the VSC9118, the VSC7331 creates a
powerful solution for a Universal Line Card that leverages
advances in SONET/SDH networks for Metro Area Networks.
The VSC7331 makes optimal use of the Virtual Concatenation
and LCAS capabilities provided in the VSC9118 to facilitate
optimum bandwidth utilization.
Because each port can be independently configured for any
of the supported protocols in the Universal Line Card (10/100
/1000 Mb/s Ethernet, Fibre Channel, FICON, ESCON or DVB-
ASI), Carriers and Services Providers do not have to stock
multiple versions of this line card. Such flexibility is central
to offering cost-effective solutions for Carriers and Service
Providers ensuring competitive deployment of technical and
financial resources.
The Vitesse Mapper and MAC components come together
seamlessly to offer an optimal solution for cost-effective
development of applications addressing high-density,
flexible, client interfaces through OC-192 SONET/SDH
connectivity with STS-1 granularity. The intelligence and
flexibility of the VSC7331VH make it a central building block
for metro data services equipment and networks.
The Vitesse VSC7331 is a 10-Gigabit, Multi-Protocol, Multi-
Rate Metro Data Services Media Access Controller (MAC).
Each port can be independently configured to support any of
the supported data streams, including, Ethernet (10/100/1000
Mb/s), Fibre channel (1-Gigabit), FICON, ESCON or DVB-ASI.
Alternatively, the VSC7331 can be configured for a single 10-
Gigabit Ethernet port.
Line interfaces include Ethernet SERDES, TBI, RGMII, MII or
XAUI. The Data Interface is an OIF Standard SPI-4.2 10-
Gigabit, multi-channel interface. Key features include Metro
Area Flow Control and Advanced Port Aggregation.
